History of Woman Suffrage, Volume III by Stanton, Anthony, and Gage
"History of Woman Suffrage, Volume III" by Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Susan B. Anthony, and Matilda Joslyn Gage is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This volume focuses on the woman suffrage movement during the years 1876-1885, detailing the tireless efforts of activists to secure the right to vote for women in the United States. The editors, prominent figures in the suffrage movement, document both the struggles and progress made,
emphasizing the importance of women's rights as fundamental human rights within the framework of American democracy. At the start of the volume, the editors highlight the context of the centennial celebration of American independence in 1876, which prompted renewed scrutiny of women's rights and citizenship status in the republic. Amid the festivities, the National Woman Suffrage Association called for equality in rights, pressing their claims for suffrage at a time when women were still largely excluded from political participation. The opening portion captures the spirit of the movement, detailing conventions, protests, and legislative attempts to enfranchise women, while addressing societal attitudes towards women's roles within the framework of government. Through the voices of various contributors, the volume seeks to shed light on the ongoing fight for justice and recognition of women's integral role in shaping the nation.
